I kind of wonder what a $300 fish tastes like.
I think people are blowing this way out of proportion.

While Goldie wasn't the official UCSC mascot, the koi was revered by a lot of people in the UCSC community, so I don't think a measly $300 is enough restitution for this.
What makes Goldie any different from the Bulldog at UGA? The Falcon at the Air Force Academy? Or any other campus that has a live animal as a symbol of their institution?
The bottom line is, these guys are morons. Whether or not MTV or the fraternity tries to wash their hands of the situation, I doubt that they'll be able to convince the public otherwise.
I really think some people are just way too insensitive.
